The results are in and our country is not united at all

So the stats are in. In the 2012 election 49 percent of voters decided to stay home. This means of the 51 percent who voted, President Obama received barely 30 percent of the confidence of all registered voters. The president’s campaign, aided by a fawning media, focused on taxes, Bain Capital, class warfare, racism, birth control, and every negative campaign tactic in their playbook, ignoring the obscene debt, high unemployment, out of control spending, gasoline prices and growing number of people in poverty. They focused on the one percent not paying their fair share while ignoring corporations like the White House favorite, GE, who pays zero in taxes and the $1 billion in back taxes owed by people working in the current administration, including some who work for the IRS.

Voters easily swayed by this relentless negative drumbeat staggered to the polls like “The Walking Dead” zombies, glassy eyed and mumbling the chosen mantra. This time it wasn’t “yes we can,” but “taxes good/rich people bad, handouts good/corporations evil.” And for good measure they dragged out the 2008 mantra of “it’s Bush’s fault.” The Democrat Party has elevated demonizing to an art form. If this were middle school, they would have been expelled for bullying.

One supporter interviewed in Chicago during the victory celebration had a frightening comment. “We finally have a seat at the table. Now we get to choose who suffers.” That Barack. He sure knows how to unite a country.
